It’s one of the most electrifying firework displays in Australia. A time when Brisbane truly comes alive and the community gathers in celebration. And as the city gets ready for the annual Riverfire Festival, there’s no better time to explore the unique allure of skyhome and penthouse living.

Imagine being perched high above the city, taking in panoramic views that stretch across the horizon and indulging in luxurious, expansive spaces that redefine the essence of urban living.

What could be better than watching the Riverfire celebrations unfold from the comfort of your skyhome or penthouse apartment at The Lanes in West End?

But the benefits of a home in the clouds extend far beyond Riverfire. The Lanes’ Skyhome and Penthouse Collection is more than just apartments – it is a selection of bespoke residences meticulously crafted to offer a blend of elegance and functionality. With expansive layouts that include three bedrooms, a multipurpose room and open living areas, these spaces transcend traditional apartment living.

The attention to detail is unparalleled. From breakfast and wine bars to gas fireplaces and climate-controlled wine cellars in the penthouses, every aspect is designed with luxury in mind. Spacious floorplans and parking for up to four cars further enhance the living experience, offering amenities that surpass standard offerings in the area.

Let’s continue to uncover the perks that come with skyhome living at The Lanes.

Panoramic views

In a typical apartment or home, views are often limited to a single direction or obstructed by nearby buildings. At The Lanes, skyhomes and penthouses offer stunning views of Brisbane’s skyline, the meandering Brisbane River and the greenery of surrounding suburbs. Picture yourself sipping your morning coffee while watching the city come to life or enjoying an evening glass of wine as the sun sets. These views aren’t just a perk – they truly transform everyday moments into extraordinary experiences, making each day feel like a private retreat that standard living cannot match.

Luxurious space

Unlike traditional apartments where space can feel cramped and confined, one of the standout features of The Lanes Skyhome and Penthouse Collection is the level of spaciousness that rivals even larger, more traditional homes. The open-plan layouts allow for seamless indoor-outdoor living, perfect for entertaining guests or enjoying quiet moments at home. Plus, with modern amenities and exclusive, resort-like recreational facilities at your fingertips, skyhome living isn’t just about having more space – it’s about living in a way that feels expansive, unrestrained and truly luxurious.

Exclusive privacy

Skyhomes and penthouses offer an unparalleled sense of privacy that sets them apart from other residences. Controlled access via The Lanes lobby, private elevators and fewer neighbours creates a peaceful, safe and exclusive environment. This privacy extends to include resident-only amenities, including the rooftop retreat with the Palm Lagoon Pool, the Sky Deck, Lookout Bar and Terrace, the private dining room, health oasis and scenic picnic lawns. It’s a level of seclusion that offers peace of mind and a retreat-like atmosphere, far removed from the hustle and bustle of typical urban living.

Hear from our residents! 

Luke and Marg Best are residents of The Lanes’ sister property, Enclave, and hosted Riverfire from their balcony last year. They had this to say:  

“We love to entertain and hosted Riverfire just after moving in. The balcony was the perfect spot for all 12 of us to enjoy the fireworks over the city… The apartment design is brilliant, the wide living room and both bedrooms are connected to the huge balcony that stretches across the entire apartment. Plenty of natural light and each room enjoys the amazing views.” 

Skyhome and Penthouse living at The Lanes offer a blend of modern amenities and an exclusive, resort-style lifestyle. Secure your spot today and be ready to enjoy 2025 Riverfire from the comfort of your new home at The Lanes, with move in set for mid-2025.
